I'm not eating that!

Round four saw teams travelling to Taipei, Taiwan.  Kapil and Niroo completed the detour, but the roadblock was another story.  Kapil took one look at the task to be completed, and made a decision that guaranteed their elimination.

How did you guys prepare for the race? By freehand exercises, Yoga (Niroo) and lots of Thai food (Kapil)

You seemed to be struggling early on. Why do you suppose that was the case?

Did we struggle? Felt like we were just warming up...

From the very first episode you've made sudden switches in strategy? Bad idea, good idea?

Good idea, bad observation. We HAD no strategy dude!

What were the high points of the race for you? And the low points?

Everything was a high point. Even the elimination! We were so happy to get out of that hell race at the time, though we're a little sorry now!

What kept you going at the toughest points?

The thought, "If others can do it, why can't we?" Simple.

What has been the most eye opening thing you have learnt about each other?

Niroo : Nothing, my eyes are already widened to the hilt by Kapil's histronics
Kapil : Yeah right, like I was the one shouting 'let's go fast fast fast' all the time

What are some things that you have learnt from the other teams participating?

Nothing, they never did anything extraordinary. Let me tell you we are out of the race just due to sheer bad luck. Some days are bad, this was one of them.

How do you think taking part in the race has affected your father-son relationship?

It has bettered the relationship. Don't ask us how!!

Who do you think will win and why? Who are you rooting for?

Henry & Bernie will win! They're the coolest folks around.

What's the first thing you're going to do now?

Take a bath!! A looooong bath!!

What motivates you and drives you to keep going on in life?

Now we are motivated by the challenge of learning to drive an ATV...that's short term, and we'll stick to that...
